33/1

Failed to see things out in a bumper, but sent hurdling he was keeping on when falling 2 out in maiden at this course (21f) in July. Would have finished in the frame last time, though will need to find more again in this contest.

Form: 0-F

Coral Reid

125/1

€2,000 3-y-o, Pillar Coral gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler Judicial Law (17f-3¼m winner) and fair chaser Camino Rocio (2½m-3m winner). Yard looks to hold stronger claims with Tumbling In.

Plenty of chances without winning in bumpers, but placed on hurdling debut in April and was in the process of showing improved form when falling 2 out in maiden at Limerick (2½m) last month, having just moved into second when departing.

Age: 4| Weight: 11-8| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott

33/1

Little impact in a trio of maiden hurdles so far, well-beaten twelfth in 25-runner event at Fairyhouse (2½m) when last seen in April. Looks one for further down the line.

Form: 080-

Louve D'arc¹⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Ben Harvey| T: William Harvey

40/1

Shaped well on debut when making the frame in a fillies bumper at Galway in October. Tailed off in listed race 3 weeks later, before shaping better than the result when eighth of 13 in maiden at Down Royal in March. Off again since ahead of hurdles bow.

Form: 478-

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Eoin Staples⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Christie

300/1

Went with little encouragement first time up when tailed-off ninth of 11 in bumper at Sligo (2¼m) 23 days ago. Looks to face a tough task making hurdling debut.

Form: 9

Star Cave^t²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Simon Torrens| T: P T Foley

10/1

Placed on 3 of her 4 starts in points, runner-up on final outing in November. Fitted with tongue strap, ran to a modest level sent hurdling when fourth of 11 in maiden at Cork (3m) 25 days ago, left in the frame at the last.

Form: 7/322-4

Tumbling In¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Gary Noonan| T: E McNamara| BF

11/10

Promise in bumpers and has shown fair form when placed in a pair of maiden hurdles, despite racing freely when third of 15 at Killarney (23f) 18 days ago (fourth won next time). Major player back down in trip.

Form: 43-33

Xquise⁵⁹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Eoin Walsh| T: C Collins

150/1

Poor form over hurdles in France back in 2023. Down the field in handicaps on the Flat the following year for Miss Jennifer Anne Lynch and has been absent 19 months ahead of stable debut/return to hurdling.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁵⁾| T: D Duggan

12/1

Maiden pointer but exceeded expectations on Rules debut when fourth of 12 in maiden chase at Kilbeggan (2½m) in June, albeit flattered by proximity as he closed up late. Now switches to hurdles. RESERVE.

Form: U443-24

Forecasts

Tumbling In (11/10), Minella Moon Shine (5/4), Cool Native (3/1), Seven Towers (8/1), Star Cave (10/1), Carrigane (12/1), Goodmancon (16/1), Casper Charlie (33/1), Who's Going (33/1), Installment (33/1), Louve D'arc (40/1), Siege Of Milan (40/1), Coral Reid (125/1), Xquise (150/1), Boston Common (150/1), Rodeo Joe (250/1), Ruled By The Sun (300/1), Maple Mornin (300/1)

TUMBLING IN wasn't able to build on the promise of her hurdling debut effort when third at Killarney last time, though she raced freely that day so is well worth another chance as she drops back in trip. Cool Native is feared most as she returns to further, ahead of Minella Moon Shine.
